The children were amazing subjects - not an iota of shyness in them and gifted with very curious natures!

Boris Brejcha | Live in Colombo

This December I was so fortunate to witness live the amazing sounds of Boris Brejcha supported by Ann Clue as well as the cream of the crop of the local DJs: Asvajit, Geve, Sunara and Shiyam.

The night was unforgettable. Amazing crowd, mind-blowing sound, a large big CUBE of visuals and most importantly, the grooviest, most intelligently dark music playing throughout the night and late into the morning! Couldn't have asked for more. I felt so spoilt. Thank you DJs so much! Don't stop doing what you're doing! Much love and peace!

I wasn't going to put this one up. An old snap. Their stares and imperfect symmetry is what made me.

ZoOoOoO!!!

I went to the zoo today with my friend Dushantha.
I found overweight tigers in tiny enclosures and apathetic bears bereft of stimulation.
I spied leopard being tranquilised and lions pacing up and down their minute confines continuously as if in a trance.
It's not the best of zoos. It's almost the worst of Man.

On a lighter note, i went for a photo exhibit at Barefoot today called Mozarts. It was in aid of a Mr. Mohan, a cancer patient. The photographs were amazing and i also learned something new from one of them. Hehe. I admired all the photographers in that exhibition so Kudos to you all. y'all are amazing. Just wish i had the cash to buy some and support Mr. Mohan.
